I watched the finale only last night and was left a little underwhelmed after the media hype of having Kylie and Jason – but to both of their wishes, it wasn’t supposed to be about them, so I felt it landed just right. Yes, Guy Pearce had far more dialogue than expected, but his character Mike’s interaction with daughter Sammy and with Jane, then him securing #24 from Shane, made sense he had to have more screen time.

In one scene, there was a package or something that had TOliver on it and I assumed that played homage to Tom Oliver as he was missing. The reel that Karl and Susan played just before the end with a cavalcade of former characters was the vehicle which enabled them to be included. With some many characters over the 37 years, it would take more than 30 minutes to include all of them, even if they were available in person, or remotely.
